Synopsis:

We consider a class of random orientations on annular maps, which is in bijection with lattice random walks that, in the scaling limit, converges to a correlated Brownian path measure. We then showed a Mating-of-Trees type result, by showing that the correlated Brownian path measure is the boundary length process of a curve decorated annulus. We also computed the law of the modulus of the annulus. This extends (Kenyon, Miller, Sheffield and Wilson, 2019) and answers a question therewithin. This is based on joint work with Xingjian Di and Nina Holden.
